Join Jason Marosi and Nancy Chobin for “Taking Ownership: Professionalism, Pride, and the Future of Sterile Processing,” an episode of Issues & Challenges in Sterile Processing: A Podcast Conversation.
In this episode, we discuss:
• Taking responsibility for your work and owning mistakes
• How ego, entitlement, and negativity affect a team
• Advocating for fair compensation while maintaining professional standards
• The importance of leadership, education, mentorship, and accepting feedback
• Challenges that can lead departments to seek outside staffing and services
• Practical ways to build trust and take pride in the profession
Whether you are a technician, educator, supervisor, or department leader, this conversation invites you to reflect on your role and the example you set.
If everyone in your department worked exactly like you, would the department improve, stay the same, or struggle?
Share your thoughts in the comments, and subscribe for more conversations about the issues facing Sterile Processing.
